Manufacturer’s Description

The guns signed by Nicolas-Noël Boutet were famous in the whole of Europe for their technical perfection and the artistic sense the gunsmith imprinted on every gun he built. Even Napoleon often wrote with flattering appreciation about the style and prestige of the Boutet guns.

Pedersoli has reproduced this elegant flintlock model, with a brown barrel and the stock high on the muzzle. The sturdy grip with fine checkering on the sides gives a robust grip sensation and is completed with a metal butt plate. The ramrod has a horn tip at one end. The gun is equipped with a single set trigger. On the lock two lines are engraved: “MANUF RE / a Versaillles.”
